Had their mother known all, they might have stayed in the kitchen engaged in the difficult task of keeping their eyes open at least an hour longer. But they were fast enough asleep in their bed when Pat came gaily in. "Ah, Pat, my b'y, you kept still at supper toime famous, so you did, but the news is out," began Mrs. O'Callaghan. "It's Moike that's in luck, and sure he desarves it."
"Sometimes it's me good old Jack up; sometimes hard swearin', straight goin' Bob; sometimes little Raven, as true a pair of hands and light and tight a seat as hunter ever had; sometimes Lory Ling, as reckless as the old Roscommon sire of him I used to carry when I was a five-year-old, with a ring in his swears, a stab in his heels, and a cut in his crop that can lift a dead-beat one over as tall gates as the best and freshest can take; sometimes it's Priest, that with the language of him and the hell-at-a-split pace he'll hold a tired one to but ill desarves the holy name he wears; and sometimes my happiest times it's a daughter of the patron up, with hands like velvet and the nerve and seat of a veteran.
"Fadher, if you were a grammarian, I'd castigate your incompatability as it desarves I'd lay the scourge o' syntax upon you, as no man ever got it since the invintion o' the nine parts of speech. By what rule of logic can you say that aither Barny Branagan's goats or Parra Ghastha's mare had a conscience? I tell you it wasn't they had the conscience, but the divine who decided the difficulty.
Rayne deserves all the comfort it is in our power to give him." "Oh, troth! yer right there, missy, an' its only half what he desarves the whole of us together could give him, but shure, if we give him all we're able, an' our good intinshions along wid that, he won't be the man to grumble at that same." Honor began to understand the character of this old servant immediately.
Ah! he's a good boy, and a good warrant to work; and the good son DESARVES the good wife, and it's he that will make the good husband; and with my goodwill he, and no other, shall get her, and with her goodwill the same; and I bid 'em keep up their heart, and hope the best, for there's no use in fearing the worst till it comes. Lord Colambre wished very much to know the worst.
"An' she has the fine fortun', mind ye," said Judy proudly, "the Masther left her a power o' money 'deed an' he did, a power o' money!" "Bedad, he must have left her a good bit," agreed Pat meditatively, "and she desarves it all. 'Pon me word, I wisht Mike had left that ould rick alone. Sure, it's her that's the loser now. It's into her pocket all that fine money 'ud be comin'."
"He desarves it!" said Aunt Chloe, grimly; "he's broke a many, many, many hearts, I tell ye all!" she said, stopping, with a fork uplifted in her hands; "it's like what Mas'r George reads in Ravelations, souls a callin' under the altar! and a callin' on the Lord for vengeance on sich! and by and by the Lord he'll hear 'em so he will!"
Breakfast was now ready, and Fardorougha himself entered, uttering petulant charges of neglect and idleness against his servant. "He desarves no breakfast," said he; "not a morsel; it's robbin' me by his idleness and schaming he is. What is he doin', Connor? or what has become of him? He's not in the field nor about the place." Connor paused.
"Love's the onny thing in the world worth 'avin' an' keeping my beauty!" he said "An' love's wot you desarves, an' wot you're sure to get. I wouldn't see Squire's gel married for money, no, not if it was a reglar gold mine! I'd rather see 'er in 'er daisy grave fust!
He desarves credit for that trick. Guess I do; but let old Connecticut alone; us Slickville boys always find a way to dodge in or out embargo or no embargo, blockade or no blockade, we larnt that last war. "Here I am in the street agin; the air feels handsum. I have another invitation to-night, shall I go? Guess I will.
